Chanel - Primiere Diamond - Women - 1980-1989

Chanel Première “Diamond” in size L, a piece that represents a milestone in the history of haute couture and watchmaking. In fact, this was the very first wristwatch ever created by Maison Chanel, conceived by the celebrated artistic director Jacques Helleu and launched on the market in October 1987. This refined version stands out clearly from the classic time-only models thanks to its stunning octagonal bezel, entirely set with brilliant-cut diamonds and inspired by the geometry of Place Vendôme and the stopper of the legendary Chanel No. 5 perfume. The design is completed by an elegant polished stainless-steel curb-link bracelet and a lacquered black dial with a minimalist, timeless style.
Condition of the item and transparency.
The watch is in good overall condition. As an authentic vintage piece, it shows the normal signs of age and wear consistent with its age. Specifically, there are small scratches and surface scratches on the crystal, and small scratches on the bracelet clasp (please bear in mind that the photos make the scratches appear more pronounced). These are age-related cosmetic details that do not detract in any way from the watch’s beauty, integrity, or wearability.
The item is being sold as is.
The watch has an impeccable, documented service history that certifies its authenticity:
Original clasp replaced directly by Chanel headquarters (an official, high-cost service).
Official Chanel repair warranty card included (issued following the service).
Documented servicing and care, with receipt, at the prestigious and historic Monetti luxury jeweler in Naples.
These are the only documents that will be sent with the watch. Current value at Chanel exceeds €9,000.
